Belgium.
The Netherlands will want to know about it, but they won't tax it.
You will be a "border crosser".
You need to register a branch of your UK Ltd in Belgium, because you're doing business there. You probably need to sort something out with a Belgian accountant.Last edited by BlasterBates; 5 January 2012, 11:09.I'm alright Jack -

All taxes paid in Belgium then. Thought that might be the case. Is €500 a day good in Belgium?"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

Which country would be better for family to live given the choice? Liege, Belgium or Aachen or Germany or Maastricht, Netherlands?"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

Just do it with a Dutch 'eenmanszaak' (sole proprietor) or BV, depending on your profit; BV's interesting if you're expecting more than about 100000 euros profit. Dutch sole proprietorship is actually OK seeing as so many things can be written off as business expenses, like meals out near clientco and hotel costs that it's easy to avoid making too much taxable profit.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument?

Though beware if you have a BV of the costs involved in setting it up EUR2.5k, as of this year you may not need the EUR18k working capital to kick start your company (not sure when that ruling kicks in).Last edited by norrahe; 5 January 2012, 11:39.Comment
